Therapists in New York, NY

I have been treating patients in psychotherapy for over 35 years. Therapy offers people help towards change, change towards the life they want. Yet,for various reasons, this life has not been attainable. My approach is to offer patients a safe, supportive, understanding environment in which they can explore their hopes and fears and the obstacles that get in their way of having a fuller, richer life.

I am a New York State-licensed Psychologist and a Certified Interpersonal Psychoanalyst. During more than 20 years of counseling, I have developed a unique blend of Interpersonal psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral and mind-body awareness promoting techniques to help patients achieve creative, professional and relational goals, and reduce anxiety and depression. All of us, through adapting to childhood experience, develop limiting fears and blind spots. I can help you to identify blocks to happiness, intimacy and serenity, and to develop new, more satisfying behaviors.

Do you want to improve your relationships? Do you feel overly anxious at times or "blue" and don't understand where such feelings are coming from? Perhaps I can help you. Over the last twenty-five years I have worked with many individuals with stressful marital and interpersonal issues. Getting a better grasp of the conflicts and feelings you are experiencing can help you create better coping skills and feel more in control of your life. With a Ph.D. in art history, I have a special interest in working with artists, writers, entrepreneurs and other creative individuals.

I'm a licensed psychotherapist. People ask for my advice on all aspects of life. I'm a new genus of therapists- mixing cognitive behavior DBT and psychodynamic therapies, to get the resolve you want. And I love what I do. With a relationship based on trust, respect and empathy, my goal is to help you create a different view of life- to change faulty thinking, get past old schemas, and resolve current issues that get in the way of your own personal growth and joy in life. Let's work on breaking destructive patterns, thoughts and actions through gained strength, empathy and resolution.

I am a clinical psychologist with twenty-five years of experience in the practice, supervision and teaching of psychotherapy in New York. I would say my approach is warm, supportive and flexible--responsive to the challenge a client faces. I have served on the medical faculty of two universities, including seventeen years at Columbia, and try to balance the benefits of evidenced-based treatment with the sensitivity of psychoanalytic and family approaches; I am certified in these last two areas. My goal is to help clients overcome obstacles to working and loving with greater pleasure and clarity.

I am a psychotherapist with a firm background in many kinds of therapy, including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and psychoanalytic. I have 15 years of post-master's level clinical experience, including work in the psychiatric unit at Bellevue Hospital, am psychoanalytically trained, and have a private practice on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience in both clinic and private practice settings. I have a wide range of clinical interests and expertise including trauma/bereavement, autistic spectrum disorders, parenting issues, and individual adult relational psychoanalysis. I am trained in parent-infant psychotherapy as intervention at the earliest ages can prevent/lessen the impact of potential risk factors that can derail a child's development. I integrate Stanley Greenspan's DIR/Floortime model with attachment-based play therapy. This integrative approach addresses both the child's social-emotional and sensory cognitive functioning,

My diverse practice reflects and serves the needs of my neighborhood. My style of practice is interpersonal/humanistic meaning that I try to take an open-minded approach to psychotherapy. The work is an exploration of the nature of relationships and sources of anxiety leading to an understanding of the moment-to-moment experience of self and others. This understanding may lead to meaningful change and to the emergence of choices that were not previously considered. I am respectful of individual needs and differences and consider social & cultural influences. Please contact me via email: drscurtisatgmail.com.

Are you feeling a little lost and frustrated trying to find “the right therapist" for you? Have you ever wished to completely be yourself in front of someone without worrying about being judged? Do you want to feel seen, heard, and understood by someone? I am here to help. I am ready to listen to your deep stories that you couldn't share with anyone and to better understand you with compassion, curiosity, and an open mind. As an immigrant with diverse educational, religious, and family backgrounds growing up in multiple countries, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate various cultures, institutions, and systems.

To help you get to where you no longer need my help: that is my definition of Psychotherapy. Fort 35 years that I have been studying and practicing psychotherapy I have learned and continue to learn as many different therapeutic approaches as I can fit into an extended work day. I want to bring all those theories and methods into the office to help you analyze and master the obstacles you may encounter, to help you dispel that idea that you are damaged, broken or inferior. Those are false beliefs. The phone number is below. Let's get started.

Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes - Jung. I am a very curious, detail-oriented, and interactive therapist, with an approach that is thoughtful conversational collaboration with the goal of understanding your 'why' and effectively assessing and creating a plan for how to move forward towards the change you are looking for.  In working with me, we will be addressing your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how they effect your everyday life, and we will identify the barriers and patterns that you feel don't align with how you want to truly live your life.

We are a not for profit community resource dedicated to providing low-cost psychotherapy to adults, adolescents and children. Our group of licensed clinical social workers, psychoanalysts and psychologists are postgraduate therapists. In therapy, we address a wide range of challenges, such as anxiety, depression, difficulty in relationships, sexual dysfunction, life crisis, problems of self esteem, physical or sexual abuse, stress related to work setbacks, the emotional problems of adult children of alcoholics, chronic feelings of emptiness, loneliness and eating disorders.

I specialize in therapy with adults who suffer from depression, anxiety, PTSD, medical diagnoses, racial conflict, life transitions, those who want to gain greater knowledge of self, dream analysis, and individuals who struggle with forming and maintaining relationships or boundaries. I have assisted both mxn and womxn work towards finding their sense of value while obtaining several ways to find healing. I'm a holistic trained therapist, herbalist, and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist who works from a psychoanalytical lens that aids in further exploring, understanding, healing, and getting to the root of our problems.

When seeing a new patient I am always mindful of the value of listening and communication. I am always mindful of ways of interpreting deeper understanding, but it begins with the building of a relationship between the two people in the room. By allowing this to develop I am able to assist in finding resolutions to symptoms and patterns that are emotionally painful and stubbornly have not gone away. My ideal client is one who is at least curious about making a commitment to change. I will attempt to do my part. I do use video and teletherapy for new and established patients.

As Covid lingers on, you may still be experiencing anxiety and/or depression that started because of, or worsened during, these past 3 years. Or perhaps you are facing your own or a family member's medical condition, struggling with relationship difficulties, dealing with problems at work, facing life transitions, or are burdened with other worries. For any of these reasons, we can work together to help bring improvements to your life.
